Canon Medical Systems added a retrofit bucky sensor system to its digital radiography efforts at the 1999 RSNA meeting. Called CXDI-22, the amorphous silicon-based unit is suitable for both wall-stand and table radiography systems, according to Canon.
Canon Medical Systems added a retrofit bucky sensor system to its digital radiography efforts at the 1999 RSNA meeting. Called CXDI-22, the amorphous silicon-based unit is suitable for both wall-stand and table radiography systems, according to Canon.
CXDI-22 features a 17 x 17-inch imaging area, and a 2.9-inch-thick sensor plate that does not require replacement of existing bucky table systems. Upright and tabletop radiographic positions can be recorded with CXDI-22, according to Canon.
With CXDI-22, preview images are displayed within a few seconds after exposure on the operation/preview panel, a 10.5-inch touch-sensitive LCD panel. Up to 300 raw images can be stored in the control station, and stored images can be disseminated to a PACS network for soft-copy reading, archiving, and/or printing. CXDI-22 is DICOM 3.0 storage- and print class-compliant, according to the Irvine, CA-based firm.
A bucky sensor unit with removable grid, operation/preview unit, and control station will cost approximately $250,000.
MRI-Based AI Radiomics Model Offers 'Robust' Prediction of Perineural Invasion in Prostate Cancer
July 26th 2024A model that combines MRI-based deep learning radiomics and clinical factors demonstrated an 84.8 percent ROC AUC and a 92.6 percent precision-recall AUC for predicting perineural invasion in prostate cancer cases.
Breast MRI Study Examines Common Factors with False Negatives and False Positives
July 24th 2024The absence of ipsilateral breast hypervascularity is three times more likely to be associated with false-negative findings on breast MRI and non-mass enhancement lesions have a 4.5-fold likelihood of being linked to false-positive results, according to new research.
Can Polyenergetic Reconstruction Help Resolve Streak Artifacts in Photon Counting CT?
July 22nd 2024New research looking at photon-counting computed tomography (PCCT) demonstrated significantly reduced variation and tracheal air density attenuation with polyenergetic reconstruction in contrast to monoenergetic reconstruction on chest CT.
